Guidelines for Borrowing and Use

• Limited number of items available. First-come, first-served.
• Objects lent out by the Library through its Library of Things program (“Things”) may only be checked out from the Front Desk at the Main Library in Downtown Dothan.
• A valid Dothan Houston County Library System library card with current address and no outstanding fines above $20.00 is required to borrow a Thing.
• If the patron has any fines associated with their account, they can pay them by logging into their account at https://www.dhcls.org/catalog, and selecting “Your Charges” on their account page.
• The library card used to make the reservation as well as a valid photo ID must be presented. Library staff will make a photocopy and retain with the lending agreement prior to Thing checkout.
• Borrowers must be 19 years of age or older with an adult library card.
• Borrowers must read, understand, and sign this Agreement at the Front Desk in the presence of a library staff member every time they check out a Thing.
